I need help; I know I am of Sioux Indian descent, but I do not know through what tribe, or person for that matter. I asked my grandmother about this, and all I could discover was that the blood comes from my great-grandmother's side. However, I have no idea how to contact her, and I believe her and my grandmother (mother and daughter, respectively) are not on speaking terms (I have a dysfunctional family). I believe my great-grandmother's married name is Boehme. If anyone has any information, or any ideas on how I might find out more, please let me know. Thanks.

Chrisi, you have four great-grandmothers. Is the great-grandmother who may be of Sioux descent the mother of the grandmother who is giving you the information?

Do you know when and where your grandmother (of the Sioux line) was born? It may be possible to identify your great-grandmother if you can provide your grandmother's name at birth, and date and place of birth. If this grandmother &/or her mother are still living, you may not want to provide this information on the message board.
